We MUST ban all kitchen knives! Oh...the humanity!

While this story is obviously very tragic indeed, I doubt that we will hear cries to ban kitchen knives.

A guy killed one sister, decapitated another (5 y.o.) and was attempting to harm a third. 4 officers shot him.

"household knife"

"Within moments, four officers were inside and two of them shot Revelus as he tried to get to Sarafina, Wells said. Revelus fell, still clutching the knife.

Details about the number of shots and who killed Revelus were pending the outcome of an autopsy Sunday."

Whaaaaa???? Does it REALLY frickin' matter who or how many shots it took?!?!?! The s.o.b. was stopped. THAT'S what matters.

I'm so tired of bad, melodramatic reporting, misleading headlines, and of the emphasis of a story usually being on the wrong thing.

Not unless that someone escapes from jail, digs up the corpse, and has his way with it. They usually don't send dead people to prison.

Anyway, what a truly horrible story. I feel sorry for the family and the police who had to witness it. Death just isn't justice for some people.

I think you credit people with too much common sense.
